Here's a list of words. But not just any words, they are all keywords in Perl. Strangely, this plain ol' list of keywords is a working Perl program.

#!/usr/bin/perl

not exp log srand xor s qq qx xor
s x x length uc ord and print chr
ord for qw q join use sub tied qx
xor eval xor print qq q q xor int
eval lc q m cos and print chr ord
for qw y abs ne open tied hex exp
ref y m xor scalar srand print qq
q q xor int eval lc qq y sqrt cos
and print chr ord for qw x printf
each return local x y or print qq
s s and eval q s undef or oct xor
time xor ref print chr int ord lc
foreach qw y hex alarm chdir kill
exec return y s gt sin sort split

Run it and see! Who says the excessive punctuation required in Perl makes its programs look ugly? ;)

Update: (3 Sept 2005) Takesako has written a program which generates JAPHs of this form: ppencode

blokhead
